For the Holiday of Sukkot
Wed. Oct. 16 - Wed. Oct. 23, 2024
The Festival of Sukkot (Booths, Huts)| JAH Feast of Tabernacles
The Torah Reading Cycle is suspended for the holiday week of Sukkot (in the KJV Bible as "Succoth") as well as for Shemini Atzeret (sometimes referred to as the eighth day of Sukkot). CH"M means Chol haMo'ed, an interim day.
Sukkot, Hoshana Rabba, and Shemini Atzeret Torah readings are from Leviticus 22-23, Numbers 29, and Deuteronomy 14-16. These readings detail the laws of the mo'edim or "appointed times" on the Jewish calendar and include the mitzvot regarding the festival of Sukkot.
On Simchat Torah ("Celebration of the Torah") we conclude, and begin anew, the annual Torah-reading cycle. First we read the Torah section of V'zot Haberakhah, and then we read the first chapter of Genesis (the beginning of next Shabbat's Torah reading).
